So many things about this story make no sense. For example, it’s made pretty clear that young people have no concept of what life was like before low gravity. It’s as if no pictures, videos, or documents survived from 20 years earlier. The low-G is also conveniently inconsistent (sometimes people can float in place, other times they lift into space). The artwork is great and the concept is cool. There is a lot to like but also a LOT to nitpick. Just depends on how you want to approach this fun little adventure.

A short, sweet, and beautiful sci-fi story with a very intriguing premise. Henderson delivers fun and likable characters with heart and charm, most of all the protagonist Willa Fowler. Willa is a perfect blend of humor, attitude and wonder. A girl who grew up in a world with significantly less gravity, and wants to explore said world, no matter the danger. Another important quality of hers is her desire to help others. It may sound cliche, but her drive to just help people makes her a heroic figure, without any powers or special abilities, she’s just a good person. She’s also surrounded with other characters who bring out more of her emotional side, her father Nate, and friends Edison, Joan, and Shirley.
I’d be remiss if I didn’t mention the artwork by Lee Garett, it’s so simple yet fits the world perfectly. Willa, for example, is drawn with very long legs and flowing hair, which helps to accentuate how she literally floats and nearly flies around. The faces are another highlight for me. When someone sees something unimaginable, their eyes and faces depict those emotions in a very captivating way. Imagine how you’d react to seeing cars and people float all of a sudden, really good stuff.
Comics like this need to be remembered and celebrated. A unique and wonderful premise with a story full of heart and emotion. Great artwork and characters. I can’t recommend it enough. It’s the kind of story you want 15 more issues of.
If I were to complain about anything, it’d be the length. The storytelling and world-building can move pretty quick at times and some of these ideas could use more time to be fleshed out.

WHAT A RIDE! With such a simple premise Henderson was able to build a rich and vibrant post apocalyptic world. The plot was well paced with believable characters driving it forward.
